WOW
WE went offshore on sunday 32 miles to the 150 wood wreck. Conditions were perfect. Small rollers maybe a foot with a 20 sec interval, lull you right to sleep.
Top conditions were a balmy 78 and blue water with vis a solid 60 feet. Temp on the bottom was a brisk 58 after the bath water top with 30 feet of vis. I killed one 15 pound taug on each dive and was satisfied with that for my first deep kills. I dove 25% on v planner plus three with a run time of 48 minutes for each dive, 70% deco.
On the interval I tried unsuucessfully to whack some mahi that came close to the boat. I also had a remora try to attach itself to my slipstreams while trying for the mahi! That was very entertaining, I guess they smell or taste funny because he left. All in all a great day on the water.
